APPENDIX 3. –The ARP function

Setting the IP Address

The Ethernet interface on the Ipxcam has a default IP address (192.168.1.168) that most likely

needs to be changed to make it work on your local network. You need to acquire a unique IP

address (ask your network administrator). For the initial setting of the IP address the Ipxcam needs

to be connected to the same network segment as your client, and the IP address can then be

configured by using a combination of ARP and ping command.

Use any of the following ways to set the IP address within thirty seconds after booting the Ipxcam

(re-cycle the power). Setting IP using the method below can only be done on the Ethernet interface.

ARP and ping from Windows or MS-DOS:

-DOS windows from the WINDOWS 98 operation system, or open

e PC's Command Prompt windows from either the WINDOWS 2000 or the WINDOWS XP

peration system.

Start a DOS prompt window

booting:

ping <IP address>

Example:

arp -s 192.168.1.100 00-0C-0C-00-00-01

ping 192.168.1.100

The IP address now is: 192.168.1.100.
